Mama June was living in such squalor before fleeing her house, it had to be totally gutted by the new owner ... and we've got pics of the shocking conditions.
Neighborhood sources tell us there's been constant demolition at June's house over the last week to clear it out. You can see from the pics ... everything from the kitchen to the bathrooms and bedrooms has been torn apart. Some rooms are stripped down to the drywall and subflooring.
Our sources say a family with 4 children is getting ready to move into the house, and it was so filthy they've decided to rip it up and start all over.
TMZ broke the story ... June and her boyfriend, Geno, recently left the Hampton, GA home and have plans to buy an RV and tour the country.
As a result, her daughter, Alana -- aka Honey Boo Boo -- is now living with her big sister, Pumpkin.
Alana turned 14 on Wednesday, but it doesn't appear June was part of the celebration. June's family issued her an ultimatum last month, choose Geno or Alana. So far, she's sticking with her BF.
As for her old house -- it's gonna need rehab and TLC. Not unlike June, if you ask her fam.

Judge Mathis denies spitting on a parking valet, despite the valet's accusations ... well we got the video, and you can judge for yourself.
Security cam footage of the incident -- obtained by TMZ -- shows the TV judge looking like a spitfire as he approaches a vehicle with the valet sitting inside. As we've told you ... the guy had Mathis' keys in his pocket, which kept him from retrieving his Rolls-Royce. Mathis says he waited a full 40 minutes.
You see hizzoner storming at the car and leaning in to berate the valet, and after a couple seconds ... lunges his head forward into the car window. This is when the valet alleges Mathis hocked a loogie right in his face.
Spit or no spit -- it's difficult to tell, even with the video zoomed in and slow-moed -- Mathis sticks around to yell and point at the valet a little more ... and makes one more mini-lunge toward him before a man comes and pulls him away.
We broke the story ... the valet claims the judge actually spit on him twice -- the second launch ended up on his shirt -- and he now wants a DNA test to prove his point. He also claims to have witnesses who can confirm the spit attack.
Judge Mathis denies launching any spit at the valet, and he gave us the reason for his frustration -- a long, long wait.

Feel free to raise a glass in honor of Luann de Lesseps reaching the end of her 1-year probation, but forgive her if she doesn't join you -- she's planning to stick with the sober life.
The 'Real Housewives of New York' star was on "TMZ Live" Wednesday to talk about her milestone. The judge ordered her to stay off drugs and alcohol during probation, and Luann told us it's had a profound impact on her life.
Yeah, she could be celebrating with champagne -- we know she's down with mimosas -- but Luann says she's now enjoying sobriety.
As you know ... she'd been on probation from her Christmas Eve 2017 arrest after an alleged drunken dispute with cops in Palm Beach, FL. Video from inside the patrol car showed Luann going nuclear ... threatening to kill an officer.
Luann didn't hold back, btw, when we asked her about her sometimes-nemesis on 'RHOC,' Bethenny Frankel, quitting the show this week. For those expecting a "ding dong the Wicked Witch is dead" kinda moment -- watch the clip.
Luann surprised us a bit, but still managed to throw some shade. She is a 'Housewife' star, after all. It's what they do.

12:59 PM PT -- Judge Mathis is clearing the air and setting the record straight on what exactly happened with his alleged spitting incident -- denying any saliva left his mouth, and even dropping another crazy nugget on us ... the actual wait time for his car, way longer than 15 minutes.
Mathis came on "TMZ Live" Wednesday to defend himself against the valet's allegation, flat-out saying he did NOT spit on the guy as he claims. He says he ended up waiting a whopping 40 minutes for his Rolls-Royce to finally be brought around ... 40!!!!
Judge Mathis says he got into a verbal back-and-forth with the guy, but that's all it amounted to. He says there were several witnesses who can back up his story, and he also told us he was not aware of any police report. He says he hasn't been contacted by cops.
To make matters worse, Judge Mathis says there was something very important he needed in his whip, which probably exacerbated the sitch. Watch ... ya kinda feel for him.
Judge Mathis might have to go in front of a judge himself because he allegedly lost it on a valet and spit on him ... and TMZ's learned the guy's lawyered up.
Sources connected to the valet tell TMZ ... the TV judge valet parked his Rolls Friday at Flood's Bar and Grille in Detroit, but when he left the joint ... things got hot quickly.
We're told a valet had Mathis' keys in his pocket and was out on a run to retrieve another car, and was gone 10-15 minutes. Our sources say when his client finally returned, JM chewed the guy out in a profanity-laced schooling ... in front of coworkers and customers.
Mathis allegedly became even angrier when the valet explained he had to travel a long way to get the other car and apologized for accidentally taking his keys.
The parting shot ... the valet told cops Mathis spit on him and then beat it.
The valet filed a police report alleging criminal assault. The cops are investigating.
We're told there were multiple witnesses to the incident.
BTW -- the judge has presided over some cases where spitting was an issue ... and his take is pretty interesting.
We've reached out to Judge Mathis ... no word back, so far.

Travis Scott is soaring to new heights, and Kylie Jenner is right by his side for support -- 2 handfuls worth, by the look of things.
The rapper's new Netflix documentary, 'Look Mom I Can Fly,' has arrived, and the couple arrived to the premiere in style Tuesday night at a Santa Monica Airport hangar.
The venue was the perfect spot to showcase their love, and the baller Netflix private jet they rode to the event. Oh yeah, and the documentary too.
Tuesday night's PDA, combined with their sick yacht vacay for her birthday -- proves any relationship troubles they had are a thing of the past.
The proud parents also brought their 18-month-old daughter, Stormi, along for the big event to up the cuteness factor. Mission accomplished.
Along with his family, several of Trav's famous hip-hop friends showed up for his film ... including Offset, Quavo and Swae Lee.
The documentary follows Scott as he pursues his rap career and juggles relationships, controversy and fatherhood. The new trailer features Kylie and Stormi and tons of footage from his Astroworld tour.

Tyler Cameron Shirts vs. Skins!!! Gigi and VMAs Can Wait
Tyler Cameron was too busy hooping and showing off his toned bod to hit up the VMAs with Gigi Hadid ... and it looks like he made the right call because he won some hardware!!!
The 'Bachelorette' heartthrob hit the court for some rec league basketball in New York City Monday afternoon ahead of the VMAs across the river in Jersey ... and naturally, Tyler C took his shirt off. It's kinda his thing.
Sure, taking in the VMAs backstage with Gigi sounds appealing, but Tyler's got his priorities ... this was the championship game after all!!! Check out the gallery to see his big shiny trophy -- TC's got game ... on and off the court, apparently.
In the end he enjoyed the best of both worlds -- after showing off his moves and his abs, and balling with his boys, the underwear model met up with Gigi for a VMA after-party!!!
Y'know you're confident when you can put someone as hot as Gigi on the back burner ... while you play a game. Point is ... those first few dates they went on in the Big Apple must've gone REALLY well.
Good for Tyler! That 'Bachelor' nonsense is fully in his rear view.

Blac Chyna Like My Dress, Kylie? It's Just a Coincidence!!!
3:07 PM PT -- Chyna's stylist, Deno Just Deno, tells TMZ ... there was nothing malicious about her dress choice -- it was neither Kylie-inspired or directed at Kylie.
Deno says BC didn't decide to attend the VMAs until 3 days ago, so he picked up several dresses for her at the last minute and they both loved the pink, feathery getup. Deno tells us it was just a coincidence it was the same dress as Kylie's -- they didn't know she wore it because they don't follow her.
He adds he wasn't aware there was a hubbub about Chyna's wardrobe until he woke up today, and he doubts she's caught wind of it ... yet.
Blac Chyna might have ruffled a few feathers with her wardrobe choice at the MTV VMAs ... because Kylie Jenner just wore it a couple weeks ago.
Chyna opted for a hot pink feathered mini dress for the awards show Monday night, which would normally be no biggie ... except for the fact Kylie rocked the exact same dress during her 22nd birthday trip.
As you know ... Chyna and the Kardashian/Jenner crew don't get along too well. There's a lot of bad blood stemming from her soured relationship with Rob, sharing an ex with Kylie, and oh yeah ... Chyna's suing the entire family.
So, ya gotta think they won't be tickled pink with her attempt to one up Kylie in a duplicate strapless frock, which BTW ... goes for about $4,600 by Attico.
Still, we gotta ask ...

Mama June Leaves Georgia Home, Buying RV ... Living on the Road!!!

Mama June has left the building, and her plan is to start a new life traveling around the U.S. in a home on wheels, with her boyfriend ... for better or worse.
Sources close to June tell TMZ ... she's no longer living in her Hampton, GA home -- it's been totally gutted and the huge dumpster that's been in the front yard for a week is now full of all the debris from inside.
Some of June's neighbors tell us she sold the house, but so far we've not been able to find property records to back that up. Regardless, our sources say June has been telling people for weeks she planned to sell her crib, get an RV and live out of it with her BF, Geno.
We're told the couple wants to leave their troubles behind, and June's already discussed the move with her daughters by phone. There's been no face-to-face talk about it though -- as you know Honey Boo Boo's now living with Pumpkin.
We broke the story ... Mama June's pad has deteriorated into a hot mess the past couple months, and she and Geno held a garage sale weeks ago to seemingly unload most of their property.
So, all the signs were there that the couple was bailing for greener pastures ... or so they hope.
Her family has reason to be concerned. June's been in an apparent downward spiral ever since her March arrest for possession of crack cocaine -- and going on permanent road trip won't alleviate her daughters' concerns. Both June and Geno are still have to stand trial for the crack possession.
What's that old saying? "You can run ..."

Luann de Lesseps Put the Champagne On Ice ... I'm Almost Off Probation!!!

Luann de Lesseps is just a day away from being a free woman -- and one day closer to being able to guzzle mimosas without a care in the world ... at least, legally.
The 'Real Housewives of New York' star needs to keep her nose clean for 24 hours, and then she'll have completed her probation stemming from her drunken arrest in Florida .. according to NYC Dept. of Probation spokesperson Candace Sandy.
It's a huge deal for Luann because this saga's been going on since Christmas Eve 2017, when she was busted in Palm Beach after an alleged drunken dispute with cops. Police video from inside the patrol car shows Luann going off on the officer, saying she'd kill him if he continued touching her.
We broke the story ... Luann dodged a felony charge and a jail stint by copping a plea deal, and she was ordered to knock out 50 hours of community service and attend 2 AA meetings a week in her home state of New York. She also had to stay away from drugs and alcohol, and submit to random testing during one year of probation.
There were a few slip ups along the way ... Luann told her probation officer she "had 2 mimosas" earlier this year after a performance in Chicago, but now she's on the verge of putting that all behind her.

Abby Lee Miller Rips Lara Spencer ... Don't Show Up at The Ballet, Bitch!!!

Lara Spencer better not show her face at any ballet any time soon ... so says Abby Lee Miller, who thinks the GMA anchor's rip on Prince George's dance lessons should make her persona non grata.
The "Dance Moms" star tells TMZ ... Spencer's on-air ridicule last week of the 6-year-old Prince for liking ballet ... is straight-up sexist. As a result, Abby says Spencer might wanna steer clear of "The Nutcracker" this holiday season.
Abby is joining the chorus of boos that have been raining down on Lara ever since she poked fun at Prince William and Kate Middleton's eldest. However, Abby says Spencer can make amends IF she cuts a fat check to help boys and underprivileged children get dance lessons.
The way Abby sees it, Lara's mockery is a slap in the face to Prince George and kids around the globe who love to dance. She adds ... it's comments like this that bully young boys and make it hard for them to enter a dance studio in the first place.
As you know, Spencer's on-air apology didn't sit well with many fans, and clearly, you can count Abby in that group.
We don't get to say this often (or ever), but we've got genuine ballet beef!!!

Ex-'Shahs of Sunset' Star Lilly's Husband Files for Divorce

Exclusive

2:12 PM PT -- According to the divorce docs -- obtained by TMZ -- Mir does not list an official date of separation. He cites irreconcilable differences as the reason for the couple's split. He also wants the court to terminate any ability to award spousal support to Lilly.
One of the former stars from "Shahs of Sunset" is being knocked down a few pegs in the hierarchy, 'cause her husband wants a divorce.
Lilly Ghalichi's husband, entrepreneur Dara Mir, just filed court docs, seeking a divorce from his wife of just 2 years. They got in May of 2017, and Lilly put up an intricately-made video of their traditional Persian wedding on YouTube.
She wrote of her nuptials at the time ... "I wanted to share something special with you guys, so I decided to share my wedding video. It was the most incredible day of my life, I wish I could marry my husband a million more times."
Lilly went on to say of her husband and matrimony, "I hope you guys enjoy our video, and I hope you all have your fairy tale wedding one day." This didn't age well, did it?
Anyway, Lilly and Dara have at least one kid together, so custody might be something they need hash out further down the road. Presumably, they also have some shared assets and/or property that'll have to be divvied up as well.
Lilly appeared on 'Shahs' for two seasons between 2012 and 2014. She had an on-again, off-again relationship with a guy named Ali, from whom she clearly moved on after her time on the show.
Back to the drawing board.

Mama June's house is a mirror image of her real life -- a shambles ... and neighbors are PISSED.
Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Mama June's neighbors in Hampton, Georgia are fuming because her house is giving the neighborhood a trashy reputation. TMZ's obtained pics showing the evidence ... a huge dumpster truck on her front lawn is the biggest non-attraction.
We're told neighbors reached out to the Homeowners Association to complain about the massive list of violations. That dumpster truck on her front lawn? We're told it's been there for at least a week. There are several trash cans filled to the brim and trash strewn everywhere.
There's more ... a broken window is boarded up ... making it look like the house is abandoned. There's also an AC unit mounted on a window ... a huge no-no, according to the HOA.
The garage door is still dented from when Mama June's BF, Geno, slammed into it with an SUV. As we first reported ... Mama June had a garage sale earlier this month and her behavior was pretty bizarre, to say the least.
As we told you ... Honey Boo Boo's not moving back to her home until Geno's gone. And maybe until the house is in tip top shape.

The 11-year-old violinist for who Simon Cowell hit the golden buzzer on "America's Got Talent" is onto the semi-finals, and his next performance could be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars ... TMZ has learned.
Tyler Butler-Figueroa is not only Simon's pick to win it all this season, but the young leukemia survivor has impressed the judges and become a fan fave with his visionary violin work and energy ... and he's on the cusp of landing a huge recording deal.
According to Tyler's semi-finalist contract -- obtained by TMZ -- if he wins 'AGT,' he'll score a $100,000 advance on his first album, with the possibility of making another $100k in bonuses based on sales. Plus, he'll get royalties on the music.
If he DOESN'T win ... he only gets a $25k advance. The good news -- win or lose, it's all about sales. If people are buying Tyler's album, he can still make up to $100k in bonuses.
And, there's this -- according to the contract, if Tyler goes on to make a second, third, fourth or fifth album with his label, his earning potential's the same regardless of how he finishes on 'AGT' ... up to a $275k advance if he gets to album #5.
Seems like he's already a big winner.
Tyler advanced to the semis earlier this week after nailing "Don't You Worry Child" by Swedish House Mafia. This, of course, after he wowed Simon with his talent -- and his story -- in the auditions round.
Good luck, kid!!!

Todd Chrisley Feds Investigating Sex Tape Extortion ... 'Bachelorette' Star Submits Evidence
-
Exclusive
- 1K shares
Todd Chrisley is in the crosshairs of the feds for allegedly extorting his daughter with a sex tape, but the big plot twist -- ex-'Bachelorette' contestant Robby Hayes claims to have damning evidence against Chrisley.
As you know, Lindsie Chrisley accused her estranged father and brother, Chase Chrisley, of extorting her. Robby is the other person with her on the alleged sex tape, and sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... he submitted a slew of evidence Thursday to the U.S. Attorney's Office. We're told he turned over text messages and other correspondence from Chase and believes they prove Todd's son -- and possibly Todd -- were coercing Lindsie and Robby.
Our sources say FBI agents now want to speak to the season 12 'Bachelorette' star. Robby tells TMZ ... he submitted an affidavit and answered all questions from federal prosecutors. He adds, "At this point, this is all frustrating and this sex tape situation has been held over my head before. Hopefully all wrongdoings come to light."
As we first reported ... Lindsie filed a police report earlier this month dropping the bombshell extortion claim against her family members. She claims they wanted her to lie under oath about her estranged parents' tax mess.
We're told Lindsie's team has also been in contact with the feds ... submitting their own evidence, including a 2-year-old tweet from Todd with the hashtag #thxgodforpuppycams. That's significant because Robby has publicly claimed, "We did not make a sex tape. I'm not sitting there with a camera ... like, we got caught on the security camera, basically. It was a puppy camera in her friend's living room."
However, our sources say the feds got a hold of the owner of that puppy cam ...who told them no tape exists.
Chase's rep says the same -- there is NO sex tape, and adds ... "Chase has never made any extortion threats to Robbie. Moreover, they are friends."
A spokesperson for Todd tells TMZ, the Chrisley patriarch will cooperate with the investigation and adds he has "nothing to hide."
As we reported ... Lindsie had recently said she would be open to repairing her relationship with the family, but recently hired armed security over fears they would retaliate against her for going to the police.
